Fiona Knight (msnoctiluca) | 35 comments I read this back in the early-mid 2010s, so it could have been published any time before then, but I feel like it was part of that crop of YA novels (The Selection, Delirium, Matched, Incarnate) that delved into semi- or outright dystopian concepts.

My memory is pretty murky on the story and hasn't been improved by the hunting through other books I've been doing, but I feel like the protagonist (teen girl, that I'm sure of) lives in a town where everyone loses their memory every so often. It may have to do with rain but I'm not at all sure about that bit. She doesn't lose hers for some reason, and I feel like she has to hide that, and then (view spoiler)

The feel of the book is definitely futuristic, but I wouldn't say entirely dystopian necessarily - there's not much sense of the wider world that I remember, but people in this town live a decent life.

Any help narrowing this down would be greatly appreciated!

You star, thank you! And I couldn't find it with a name like that - further proof Google has gone useless recently.
Solved!
